TOM BRADY’S FITNESS SECRET: RESISTANCE BANDS

by Carlene Murray

It is no secret Tom Brady is an amazing athlete. At the age of 43 he has won his seventh Super Bowl ring and doesn’t appear to be stopping there. Athletes and everyday people a like look to him for fitness advice. They wonder how he stays in such good physical and mental shape at his age. Brady is all too happy to share the secret to his fitness success. For years Tom Brady’s fitness secret has been resistance bands.

TOM BRADY & RESISTANCE BANDS

Brady believes resistance bands are an essential part of any workout routine. He has created his own method and workout company based on their benefits and his own personal routine. TB12 uses various resistance bands to create something he and his trainer Alex Guerrero call ‘muscle pliability’. Muscle pliability is the form of training that converts muscles into veritable shock absorbers. He stresses the importance of ‘soft’ muscle verses dense muscle when it comes to staying fresh in long difficult seasons. Resistance bands are known to help increase range of motion, build muscle and strength, and increase flexibility.

Tom Brady reportedly gave up weights seven years ago in favor of resistance bands and body weight resistance. He must be doing something right because he continues to dominate on the football field. Resistance bands use the natural movement of your body unlike many machines. This helps eliminate inflammation and create a calmer and more peaceful workout experience.
